Tighten the screws really good on the middle bar or the whole thing will collapse after about 2 months of use, like it did for me. I used pliers for tightening them, but apparently, that was not enough. I think they should change the design to a locking pin because turning it seems to loosen those nuts. I will put new nuts on and check them every couple weeks.

Other than that, this is a great, easy to use composter. It efficiently mixes the contents with each turn and creates sufficient heat inside the barrel. After 2 months, my compost is black and almost done. This is why it gets 4 stars and not less for the design.

UPDATE: We recently put the composter back together with the new nuts they sent. It's been over a year and it's holding up.

I just got my tumbler this week but so far, I am thrilled and excited about it. It could'nt be any easier to put together. I did it in about 15 minutes by myself, no problem. I took it outside and filled it up from my old compost pile, which i've never turned. Im set and ready for spring. I'd suggest this product for any gardener.
